To take the mound?

Are we considering who is on short rest or is this just in a vacuum as if all were rested?

Yes, in a vacuum. Am I completely crazy to say HB. Because I might.

I'd say Ronel but Hunter may well be option 2.

A little luck on Pride Night!

I kept asking what LGBTQ night was but I couldn't get a straight answer.

You just know McCann was sitting back there laughing and going all Crash Davis, telling the Yankees what was coming. "Yeah dude. I'm not even putting fingers down. It's gonna be a curve. You know it. I know it. Everyone on TV knows it. And you still can't hit it."

5 runs scored and another W, almost like clockwork.

Hunter credited Alex's input when asked after the game about his turnaround and bringing back the sinker. Veteran leadership.

If today were the post season and Astros were in it., and let's assume for a moment that JV is healthy by then, what's your playoff rotation/order?

Blanco, JV, Hunter, Framber ?

Most amazing part of that graphic may be the 1-4 football line with the Cowboys and the 5-9 line with the Texans.

I'm sure Cowboys fans everywhere would be catatonic if they saw that.

The 39-40 Astros have managed to make a Wednesday game vs the Rockies with a 1:10 start as exciting as possible.

Some of us are Cowboys fans. I was in college when the Oilers left, and I wasn't going to cheer for a team in Memphis. The Texans would arrive a couple years later, and I had a team. If Fertita gets an NHL team in Houston, you can bet that's my team. I had Aeros season tix many moons ago.

I live a tortured existence… the Oilers didn't need a new coach, they needed a new owner. Likewise, the Cowboys have a senile GM / owner…. They need a new owner. Now you know…. The rest of the story. Good Day!

Altuve up to 210th all time in hits. Passed Placido Polanco, Tommy Leach, Ken Boyer, and Ken Griffey Sr. tonight.

Also to 165th in steals with #303.

SO assuming everyone is healthy (LMC and LuAce not withstanding) after the ASG does Espada change the rotation? I'd like to see Blanco, JV, Brown, Framber then BP day until reinforcements arrive.

Can't have 4 starters and BP day. If a starter is bad you're hosed. Will have to spot stat guys.

How in the hell does Josh Miller still have a job? The guy should have been fired in April.

I think you have to keep Arrighetti in as the 5th starter. He's still a bit inconsistent but he's better than a BP day every 5th start. And in theory, he should get better with each start. Bloss is another option depending on how he is physically.

Most depressing part? Washington Nationals, 1-4 wins. They have 4 series wins since 2010 and they all came in a single year.

Out of the hundreds of baseball games I have gone to, I have never been anywhere close to a batted ball. I went to one Aeros game back around 1995 and got hit in the knee with a puck. It is sitting on top of my gun safe lol.
Lol. I have the exact same situation. I've been to hundreds of baseball games and never came close to a fly ball. I went to a single Dallas Stars game, and my son caught a puck (well, it hit the empty seat next to him and he grabbed it).

39-40
3.5 games back of 3rd Wild Card spot
4.5 games back of Division lead










And only three games back in the loss column.

I think he's too good of an OFer to try and convert to 1B.

Especially if they move an OFer at the deadline.
